[Verse 1]
                       C
There's a trophy in a trophy case
                       G
Tallahassee down in Florida State
                         D
Houston 'bout found the end-zone
                       G
But big Dan couldn't let 'em go
                      C
Now he still can't walk the streets
                      G
Without a pat on the back or a wink
                         D
That trip that took the runner down
                      G
It didn't make him world-renowned


[Chorus]
                      C
But he's small-town, big time
                   G
Right over that Florida line
                    D
Ten miles from the Georgia pines
                          G
Twenty minutes from the coastline
                   C
There's a lot of boats down there
                      G
There's a lot of folks everywhere
                           D
That don't care about the city lights
                           G
'Cause thеy're small-town, big time, woo

[Verse 2]
                          C
Therе was a farm on the edge of town
                        G
Old timers call it the biz, planting grounds
                        D
'Til they laid that asphalt down
                       G
Started driving them cars around
                    C
And on any given Friday night
                            G
They're trading paint and getting into fights
                  D
For a chance to show their stuff
                    G
And hold that big trophy up


[Chorus]
                   C
Yeah, small-town, big time
                   G
Right over that Florida line
                    D
Ten miles from the Georgia pines
                          G
Twenty minutes from the coastline
                   C
There's a lot of boats down there
                      G
There's a lot of folks everywhere
                           D
That don't care about the city lights
                           G
'Cause thеy're small-town, big time, alright


[Instrumental Break]
C  G  D  G


[Chorus]
                   C
Yeah, small-town, big time
                   G
Right over that Florida line
                    D
Ten miles from the Georgia pines
                          G
Twenty minutes from the coastline
                   C
There's a lot of boats down there
                      G
There's a lot of folks everywhere
                           D
That don't care about the city lights
                           G
'Cause thеy're small-town, big time, woo
                          D
Yeah, you can keep your city lights
                          G
'Cause we're small-town, big time
            C  G  D  G
Yeah, baby
